Heated Oxygen Sensor (Ho2S): Inspection
NOTE:
- Before checking, warm up the engine until the engine coolant temperature reaches 80 to 95°C (176 to 205° F).
- Use an accurate digital voltmeter.
- Disconnect the oxygen sensor connector, and measure the resistance between terminal 3 and terminal 4.
Standard value
- Replace the oxygen sensor if there is a malfunction.
- Apply battery voltage directly between terminal 3 and terminal 4.NOTE: Be careful when applying the voltage. Damage will result if terminals 1 and 2 are connected to any voltage.
- Connect a high-impedance digital-type volt meter between terminal 1 and terminal 2.
- While repeatedly racing the engine, measure the oxygen sensor output voltage.
- If there is a problem, there may be an oxygen sensor malfunction.
Tightening torque
